Erosion: A Fable takes a look at the familiar world of corporate desk jobs through a surprising aesthetic prism. A homeless woman and a mid-level office exec begin selling dirt on the street together, and calling it Love. But their best intentions take them far from where anyone would have guessed once the Dirt/Love craze goes global. Echoing dialogue sparked by Occupy Wall Street, Citizen's United and the global energy crisis, Erosion: A Fable uses Loom's signature palette of athletic dances, intricate vocal compositions and traditional storytelling techniques to stage this story of corporate competition, environmental catastrophe and personal transformation. The physical vocabulary of the show draws from modern dance, contact improvisation, acrobatics and capoeira angola. The show's original music is composed for voice, world instruments, original instruments and electronics, and incorporates vocal and musical styles from around the world.
